Most of the contents of Super Lungs: The Complete Studio Recordings -- most especially the albums Bang, Bang You're Terry Reid and Terry Reid -- will be familiar to the singer's fans, and may dissuade people from picking up this double-CD set. That would be a shame, however, in view of the other material that is here -- starting with his work with Peter Jay & the Jaywalkers, which opens disc one and dates from well before his solo debut, Reid reveals himself as an extraordinarily (jaw-droppingly good, in fact) soul singer, with range, power, charisma, and taste, even on those early sides, and the package is extended into genuinely uncharted territory with a half-dozen newly discovered, newly mixed outtakes from Bang, Bang You're Terry Reid, and two tracks from Reid's first recording session in 1966, "Funny How Time Slips Away" (which is almost worth the price of the double-CD set by itself) and "I'll Take Good Care of You." The sound quality is spot-on perfect, state of the art, the annotation by Peter Doggett is entertaining and informative, and the whole package is some of the best British-spawned soul and R&B that one can find.

Plenty of Ian Hunter compilations have appeared over the years but the 7T's label's 2012 double-disc set The Singles Collection: 1975-83 offers a distinctive spin: it offers the A- and B-sides from Hunter's post-Mott commercial peak of the late '70s and early '80s. Many of Hunter's classics are here -- "Once Bitten Twice Shy," "All American Alien Boy," "England Rocks"/"Cleveland Rocks," "Ships" -- and plenty of his quirkier overlooked rockers from the time like "Justice of the Peace." Although this certainly sags a bit toward the end as Hunter tackles the synth-heavy '80s, compared to Legacy's earlier double-disc set Once Bitten Twice Shy this is stronger -- that 2000 comp was heavy on rarities and this provides a better overall portrait of Hunter at his best.

What a great double- (quadruple?) shot!
Thanks!
awesome!!! :]

Terry Reid: one of the great "lost" English singers, like Jess Roden... a wonderful sound... thanks very much!
Wow Thanks
Ian Comp is incredible
Thanks for both of these! Glad to see the Reid set!
Thankyou so much - the mighty Terry Reid! What a Voice!
One does wonder what history had been like if Terry Reid had been able to join Led Zeppelin (he was Jimmy Page's first choice, but was under contract and unable to join) instead of Robert Plant.
And THANKS! for the Ian Hunter!
I'm really only familiar with the self-titled solo LP and a couple of singles, so I'm really looking forward to checking this out. Thanks, Gyro!
